I’m The King Chapter 1013: :Huanghuang Hanwei (6)


When it was daylight, Shang Kexi woke up from his sleep behind a wall battlement. He slept on the city wall at night. He stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, then turned his head to look into the distance through the gap between the battlements Go, he couldn't help but opened his eyes wide, rubbed them hard again, and confirmed that he was not mistaken. In front of the Qin Army's camp not far away, under the slightly white belly of the sky, what he saw was densely packed. Take a look. The huge siege engines that can't reach the side, each of these siege engines is almost as high as the city wall of Shannan County.

Damn it, how did the people of Qin build so many siege vehicles in one night? Shang Kexi thought in shock, looking at the mountain a little farther away, where there were lush trees, but now they are mottled A piece of.

His face became serious, the people of Qin are about to strike wildly.

Wang Xiao stood in front of the huge siege engines, very satisfied with his son's attack that night. Even the branches and leaves of the trees are slippery and shaved, but they are extremely strong. Huge iron nails nail the thick and thin tree poles together. In the front of the siege vehicle, there are large iron shields one person high densely covered, which is very strong against the siege vehicle. Provides the greatest protection. On the top two floors of the siege vehicles, several bed crossbows are placed, which can suppress the enemy on the city wall. More importantly, the rear of the siege vehicles is no longer Instead of a ladder, it is a long ramp drawn obliquely. In this way, when attacking, the soldiers can directly rush to the highest level of the siege vehicle along this ramp, and then directly hit the opponent's city wall. There is no need to climb up the ladder anymore. In terms of time, the saving is not a little bit, and time is naturally the most critical at that moment. If you can climb the city wall at the fastest speed, you will give the attacker the shortest reaction Time, when everyone is at the same height, the two sides are almost at the same level.

"Okay, not bad, take Shannan County City, I'll give you a head attack." Wang Xiao stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"Father, son requests the first attack." Wang Jian said loudly.

"No need, you worked hard last night, take a good rest today and go to sleep, when you wake up, we will probably be standing on top of Shannan county city!" Wang Xiao was obviously in a good mood. Looking at the smoke rising from the camp, "After breakfast, the attack will begin. Today, we must take down Shannan County."

Above the city of Shannan County, all the people in the city were silently preparing for the next bitter battle. Sacks of soil were carried to the city wall and built into a high wall. The enemy made such a move There are many, such a tall siege engine, for the city, raising the city wall is the easiest and most effective.

For more than ten days, the Qin army suffered heavy losses outside the city, but the inside of the city did not suffer either. Shang Kexi's 10,000 soldiers plus the reserve soldiers of the Shannan Battalion, he has already lost more than 3,000 people. For Shannan County City, which needs 20,000 people to protect it, this is a huge gap in numbers. Outside the city, the Qin Army is still increasing its troops, and every day there will be a new camp on the other side. Everyone is silent.

I don't know when my reinforcements will come?

"There is still a lot of good wine in the warehouse." Shang Kexi suddenly said, "Bring it out, let the soldiers drink it all, and it can increase their strength."

"Wine?" Qian Kezhuang next to him turned his head and looked at Shang Kexi, "General, you seem a little lacking in confidence?"

Shang Kexi smiled wryly, "You are right, I am indeed a little lacking in confidence. Although the city has enough weapons, the problem is that we don't have any more people to use them. The next step is bound to be cruel Hand-to-hand combat, Lao Qian, I'm afraid that the reserve soldiers under your command will not be able to withstand it at that time, and it is impossible for me to allocate more people to support you."

Qian Kezhuang was silent for a moment, "Shannan Camp doesn't need anyone's assistance, even if we block it with our bodies, we will defend the city wall. General Shang, I will guard the north and north, and leave the rest to you."

Shang Kexi nodded, "I hope we can survive today, and if we can survive today, the blow will be fatal to the enemy on the other side, so we can hold on for a longer time."

"Commander He Lan should be on the way now, right?"

"The army is dispatched at such a fast speed. The supply of logistics alone is a systematic project. This time it happened suddenly. I am afraid that Commander He Lan's army will not be able to leave Daijun in a short time. It is conservatively estimated that, in terms of the fastest cavalry under Commander He Lan, it may take five or six days to reach us." Shang Kexi sighed, "I am afraid that it is difficult to put out the fire near the water."

Drums are rumbling, and the huge array of cars on the opposite side begins to move forward.

"It's started!" Shang Kexi took a deep breath, "Come on, Wang Xiao, let me see what tricks the Great General of Qin has!"

To be honest, Wang Xiao really has no tricks to win by surprise. Facing such a military fortress with plenty of weapons and food, there is no other way to use it except for head-to-head. Fill it with human life and flood the city with blood.

At the north gate, Qian Kezhuang stood in front of his Shannan camp. These days, his Shannan camp did not engage in hand-to-hand combat, and basically maintained a complete organizational system. Now that the city is seriously short of troops, the Shannan camp must also He has stepped onto the front line. Unlike the regular army, the age structure of his team varies greatly. There are fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys and fifty-six-year-old men, but without exception. Yes, what Qian Kezhuang saw in their eyes was a firm will to fight.

"Brothers, get ready to work!" Qian Kezhuang waved his hand, as if calling everyone to go to the fields to do farm work, and shouted casually.

The crossbow shot up, Qian Kezhuang stared at the approaching siege vehicle, spit in the palm of his hand, and took the handle of the bed crossbow.

When there was a loud noise, the bed crossbow crossed the space and shot heavily at the siege vehicle, but was blocked by the thick shield. The bed crossbow was half embedded in the shield, and could not cause more damage The harm. People in the city are all discolored, but under the city, the Qin army gave a huge cheer, heavy, and sometimes it has the advantage of being heavy.

"The bed crossbow is not very useful for this thing. The front is blocked by a large shield. The bed crossbow extends to shoot at the infantry behind, and the arm crossbow covers and shoots. Damn, you should put another cover on the siege vehicle. In this way, I will have no place to talk!" Qian Kezhuang snorted.

Accompanied by the rumbling sound, one after another siege vehicles leaned against the city wall. The huge force made the whole city wall seem to be shaking. It was more than one meter high, and the soldiers on the city knelt half-kneeling on one of the earth barriers, shooting wildly at the siege vehicles with their crossbows. The soldiers of the Qin army shouted, pushing the soldiers in front to charge forward row by row , the soldiers rushing to the front were already dead, but they couldn't fall down, because the people behind were using them as human shields.

"Pikeman, longshooter!" Qian Kezhuang yelled frantically, it was too late to rewind the crossbow, so he casually threw away the crossbow in his hand, picked up a spear at his feet, With a yell, he stabbed it out. As if a urine bubble had been punctured, Qian Kezhuang heard a slight explosion.

Shaking the bowl, retracting the gun, and stabbing it out again. There were two spears stabbing at him fiercely in front of him. There were two bangs, and a shield appeared around him in time to block the two spears. Qian Kezhuang took the opportunity to stab repeatedly. Stabbed the two Qin soldiers to death on the spot.

"Old man Wang, thank you very much!" Qian Kezhuang turned his head and looked at the old man who was stepping beside him. Can block guns for you."

On the other side, Shang Kexi brandished his long spear and jumped directly onto the opposite siege engine from above the battlements while shouting loudly. In an open space, following Shang Ke's actions, more soldiers jumped onto the siege vehicles on the city wall and began to fight on the enemy's territory.

On the city wall, there were fierce shouts of killing everywhere, and the Qin army in many places also jumped onto the city wall, fighting with the Han army who rushed to counterattack. There was no place on the entire city wall. No fierce fighting broke out.

"Set it on fire, set it on fire!" Shang Kexi turned around and went back to the city wall, looking at the dangerous situation everywhere, he shouted.

"General, we have run out of oil."

"Wine, there is wine in the warehouse." Shang Kexi suddenly remembered something. "Bring those wines here, they are all spirits and can be ignited."

Soon, a jar of spirits was brought to the top of the city, Shang Kexi raised a jar of spirits, "Damn, it's cheaper for you!" A torch was thrown up immediately.

With a bang, the jar shattered, and a pale blue flame rose into the air.

"Throw the wine, throw the wine jars over." The jars flew in the air and fell on the siege engine leaning on the city wall. The fire ignited again.

At noon, Qin Jun's attack was finally repulsed, but a smile appeared on the face of Wang Xiao under the city.

"They are running out of ideas, are they finally going to run out of grease? Even the wine is set on fire, but I don't know how much wine is stored in your Shannan County city." The smell of wine on the battlefield made people Quite a few wine worms salivate, just by sniffing it, they know that it is good wine. It is produced by the Wu family in the Han state. In the Qin state, it is still unable to produce such strong good wine, so it is a high-ranking official of the Qin people Nobility, drinking is also imported from Han.

Qian Kezhuang's face was full of regret, just this round of setting fire, he threw more than a dozen wine jars out in one breath, at that moment of death, he didn't care about the pity, now the enemy retreated, smelling Seeing the aroma of the wine, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

"You son of a bitch, you son of a bitch!" He kept cursing, "Old Wangtou, can you find some small jars, preferably ones that can only hold half a catty of wine."

"Old Qian, you have to keep a little!" Old Wang asked in a low voice.

"Fart, when I was in Liaoning Wei, I saw General Meng Chong of Nanye also used this trick, but he used a small bottle to hold wine, put a twister in front, lit it, burned it for a while before throwing it out, bang With a bang, the bottle burst open, not only burning people, but the sharp fragments can also kill people, throwing it like before is too wasteful." Qian Kezhuang said. (To be continued)
